200, 80018 226 Ave W · Foothills County Acreage

The Opportunity

A rare acreage with the city at its doorstep

Wake up to the Rocky Mountains and finish your day watching the horses graze as the sun drops behind the foothills. Set on ±8.7 private, treed acres just five minutes from Calgary's south edge, this is real country living without giving anything up.

The five bedroom walkout home was made for the view, with big west facing windows pulling the mountains and foothills into nearly every room. Cross fenced and ready for horses, with a barn, oversized garage, RV pad and room for the whole family to spread out, all minutes from Spruce Meadows, Granary Road and Red Deer Lake School.
